Long-Term Running Goals:

I love to run!  I want to feel good and run for a very long time.

Personal:

My husband Brent and I live in Orem with our three kids ages 12, 10 & 7.  Brent is a Marriage and Family Therapist and I'm at home with the kids.  I used to be a CPA, but now I just do a little bookkeeping from home.  For a lot of years running a marathon was something I did to get back in shape after having a baby.  Just finishing was accomplishment enough, now I want to finish faster.

I ran the St. George Marathon in 3:18 when I was 18 and set a record for my age division 15-18.  Now I train with the girl who broke my record.  I love the marathon and half marathon.   Long runs are what keep me from going crazy.

Four miles followed by 30 minutes of exercises and stretches from the physical therapist.  I hate the PT routine, but that's what I have to do to be able to do the running which I love.

I'm going to try to report my miles again.  I quit blogging last winter.  Since then I've done the Boston Marathon (3:11), Utah Valley Marathon (3:10) and the Bryce Canyon 1/2 (1:24).  I wish I would have written my race reports.  Next one will be Top of Utah.  I've had a rough summer with injuries so far so we'll see how this goes.  I just want to feel good and really enjoy the race like I did at Boston.

Not exactly all easy.  Ran a 9 mile mostly trail loop up Provo Canyon with Josse and Melody.  Up behind water tower and down by Timpanogos Park.  Start and end at my house.  I love that I live so close to the canyon.
